AIM OF THE CONFERENCE
This is the third International Conference to be organised by the DYMAT Association since it was enlarged from a purely French organisation.
As previously an opportunity will again be provided for scientists, engineers and industrialists working on problems associated with the dynamic loading of materials to exchange information and share experiences both in relation to the overall macroscopic response of materials and in relation to the microscopic mechanisms which control this behaviour.
SCOPE
The conference will be concerned with both theoretical and experimental approaches to the study of all aspects of the mechanical behaviour of materials at high rates of strain. There will be five main sessions each opened with a review lecture:
- Constitutive equations;
- Numerical simulation of high strain rate phenomena;
- New testing techniques in dynamics (testing polymers, composites, ceramics), methods of transient temperature
measurement;
- Processes utilising high strain rates and strains: metal forming, metal cutting;
- Structures subjected to high strain rate loading; crashworthiness, ballistic studies.
CONFERENCE VENUE
All conference sessions will be held in the Centre of Japanese Art and Technology in Kraków. A reception area and space for poster displays will be available alongside the Lecture Theatre.
A beautiful view of the Vistula river and the Royal Wawel Castle can be enjoyed from the terrace of the Centre. The lecture room was designed and prepared technically to provide the best possible conditions for conferences.
